The Tenant Farmers Association was formed in 1981 by a group of farmers who felt that their interests were not being forcefully represented by existing bodies. The TFA is the only organisation dedicated to the agricultural tenanted sector and is the authentic voice on behalf of tenant farmers. The TFA lobbies at all levels of Government and gives professional advice to its members. The TFA seeks to support and enhance the landlord-tenant system. It represents and advises members on all aspects of agricultural tenancy and ancillary matters. It also aims to improve the professional and technical knowledge of its members, to increase the flow of new tenancies onto the market and to help the farming industry best apply existing agricultural tenancy legislation.

Members of the TFA are drawn from right across the spectrum of the farming industry. Their farms range from the smallest County Council holdings to units of several thousand acres. The needs of this wide range of members is met by its regional structure of nine regions across England and Wales, each with its own regional chairman. This, together with a readily accessible Head Office team, ensures a rapid and effective interchange of ideas and activity.

The TFA currently works with 70 land agents, accountants and solicitors each hand picked by the regional committees according to their expertise in tenanted matters. They help in solving members’ problems and contribute to national strategy. This nationwide involvement with selected land agents, briefed on latest rent trends from the TFA database, is unique to the TFA.
